An HF-through-UHF discone w/ mast-mounted preamp feeds the receivers through a variety of power dividers and downstream wideband amplifiers. The upstairs monitoring spot contains the two Bearcats and the two Pro-2052s; the latter are computer controlled via ScanCAT. My main listening post/operating area currently has three of the R7000s, the 2035s, the 2042 and the 2096 set up. The 2035 and the R7000s are computer controlled by ScanCAT and a couple other utilities.

One of the R7000s is equipped with a TV-R7000 NTSC converter. Two more have been equipped with SGC's ADSP2 DSP boards. All four have had their stock SSB filters replaced with Murata CFJ455K5s, which offer better SSB selectivity.

I do a lot of VHF low-band (25-50MHz) monitoring with this setup, and also listen to the railroad, FRS/MURS/GMRS crowds, local PS/LE TFC as well as the occasional amateur simplex frequency. The DSP units really help out when chasing after FLTSAT pirates in the 250MHz region.

Just bought my mother an Uniden Home Patrol for Christmas. I also got her a discone and programming software so I could get it programmed. WONDERFUL SCANNER! I have had several Radio Shack scanners. Pro-39, the first 1000 channel scanner that Radio Shack came out with. 2 or 3 others. Our area has switched over to digital.

My vhf/uhf radios mainly used to monitor the vhf airbands some have frequencies programmed and others that dont i just enter the frequency want to listen too few of them also get used to monitor hf aero..
